Dallas Quinceañera Photography Packages & Pricing for DFW Families

New Dawn Photo's complete quinceañera photo and video packages start at $2,999 for the Quartz package, $4,199 for the most popular Opal package — the first tier with a photo album and two framed portraits, one for the celebrant and one for her parents — and $5,999 for the Ruby package. Every price is published openly with no discovery call required, and our pricing is intentionally set below the DFW market average.

Every full package includes a Save the Date photoshoot, a 2-hour pre-XV photoshoot, framed main-entry portraits, multi-hour event coverage, hundreds of edited event photos, a documentary-style event video, a phone audio guest book, and physical keepsakes. The entry-tier Bueno, Bonito y Barato package ($1,699) includes the Save the Date photoshoot, a 1-hour session with up to 15 images, a framed 16x24 entry portrait, a phone audio guest book, and 4 hours of event coverage in photography or videography, whichever you choose. Higher tiers add more locations, a hardcover guest book, acrylic albums, a cinematic highlight video, and a digital invitation website.

Choose by how much of the day you want kept. Quartz covers 4 hours at one location and includes your framed 16×24 main entry portrait and a 4×6 keepsake box with a USB drive, without an album or guest book. Opal covers 6 hours across two locations — the event plus either getting ready or mass — and adds an 8×11 acrylic cover album and the hardcover photo guest book. Ruby covers 8 hours across three locations — getting ready, mass and the event — with our largest acrylic album, the guest book, and a cinematic highlight video alongside the full documentary. Every detail is compared line by line in the sheet above.

Yes. Every package includes our phone audio guest book: a vintage-style phone on a styled table at your reception, with a neon sign and simple instructions. Guests pick up the handset, hear a short greeting and leave a voice message — blessings from the abuelos, advice, jokes, songs — in English or Spanish. It comes in blush pink or classic white, the same commercial-grade unit either way, built to run all night. Because our team is already there, we keep it running: announced after dinner and checked through the evening. Afterward we clean up and level every recording and deliver the messages in the same private online gallery as your photos and video.

A documentary-style event video captures everything inside your contracted coverage window in sequence — the ceremony, traditions, speeches, and dances — so your family can relive the celebration as it happened. A cinematic highlight video is a fast, emotional 3–5 minute recap meant for sharing online. Every full New Dawn Photo package (Quartz, Opal, Ruby) includes the documentary event video; the cinematic highlight video is included in the Ruby package. The entry-tier Bueno, Bonito y Barato package covers the event with photography or videography, whichever the family chooses. Hear real clips on our quinceañera videographer page.

Yes. All three packages — Quartz, Opal, and Ruby — include a Save the Date photoshoot with 10 digital images and a 30-minute session, plus a separate 2-hour pre-XV photoshoot.

Yes, without being asked. Every package includes automatic updates by text and email: each gallery and film is announced by name the moment it goes live, and when we need your favorites or album photos chosen, the message says so, takes you straight to them and reminds you before the deadline. Messages are held between 8pm and 8am, and a single reply of STOP ends them. Everything they announce is also on the Project Status timeline in your client gallery.

Yes. No two quinceañeras run the same, and after photographing celebrations across Dallas–Fort Worth we've documented just about every kind of day-of timeline. Our detailed shotlist means we know which moments matter most to your family — the crowning, the changing of shoes, the last doll, the father–daughter waltz, the surprise dance and a formal mass — whether you honor every tradition or make it your own.

Because no family should have to go on an archaeological dig to find out whether they can afford a photo and video team. Every package price is published openly — no discovery calls to unlock numbers, no quotes adjusted to what we think you can afford, no surprise add-ons after signing — and every price includes taxes, so what you see is what you pay. We encourage you to compare at least three other DFW quinceañera photo and video teams on pricing, inclusions and communication; we'd rather you arrive informed than feel pressured by a single sales call.

All of it. Over the last three years we've photographed and filmed 100+ quinceañeras across DFW, from Dallas and Fort Worth to Arlington, Plano, McKinney, Carrollton and Irving.

Start by submitting your event details on the Contact page. You'll receive a text confirming whether your date is available, then we'll guide you through securing it and choosing the package that fits your celebration. If we're already booked, we can refer you to trusted DFW photo and video teams.

Yes, through Affirm. Choose Affirm when you pay your invoice to split the cost into monthly payments, subject to an eligibility check. Affirm is the only monthly payment option we offer. Otherwise you pay as you go: one payment a week before your preshoot session and one a week before your event.

Yes — a sweet 15 and a quinceañera are the same celebration, and families across Dallas–Fort Worth use both names. Every package on this page covers either, in English or Spanish.

There's one of us, and every month there are dozens of families who all deserve their memories back quickly — a single photographer editing weekend to weekend simply can't match that demand. That's why your event's photo and video editing is handled by a dedicated professional team we've worked with for years and trained on our style: we work smart, not harder. We still review and approve everything before it's delivered. See our current delivery averages.
